Instlling the Projector 21 Instlltion Methods The projector supports the following four different projection methods. Instll the projector ccording to the conditions of the instlltion loction. Project imges from in front of the screen. (Front projection) Project imges from behind trnslucent screen. (Rer projection) Wrning A specil method of instlltion is required when suspending the projector from ceiling (ceiling mount). If it is not instlled correctly, it could fll cusing n ccident nd injury. If you use dhesives on the Ceiling mount fixing points to prevent the screws from loosening, or if you use things such s lubricnts or oils on the projector, the projector cse my crck cusing it to fll from its ceiling mount. This could cuse serious injury to nyone under the ceiling mount nd could dmge the projector. When instlling or djusting the ceiling mount, do not use dhesives to prevent the screws from loosening nd do not use oils or lubricnts nd so on. Do not cover the projector's ir intke vent or ir exhust vent. If either of the vents re covered, the internl temperture could rise nd cuse fire. Suspend the projector from the ceiling nd project imges from in front of screen. (Front/Ceiling projection) Suspend the projector from the ceiling nd project imges from behind trnslucent screen. (Rer/Ceiling projection) Attention Do not use the projector on its side. This my cuse mlfunctions to occur. An optionl ceiling mount nd ttchment plte re required when suspending the projector from ceiling. s "Optionl Accessories" p.121 The defult Projection setting is Front.
